Abstract

A liquid crystal display device is provided that includes a plurality of pixels that forms a display unit. Each of the pixels includes at least a pair of substrates that is arranged opposite each other with a liquid crystal layer disposed therebetween; and a common electrode and a pixel electrode that are disposed on one substrate of the pair of substrates with an insulating film disposed therebetween so as to drive liquid crystal molecules of the liquid crystal layer. An electrode of the common electrode and the pixel electrode that is disposed closer to the liquid crystal layer has a slit having a predetermined tilt angle with respect to a longitudinal direction of each of the pixels and opposite outer edges that are in parallel to the slit.
